2. (Tie) Texas Rangers +440 (Last week: +440)
To say it hasn’t been a great start to July for the Texas Rangers would be an understatement. They’ve lost seven of their last ten games and have seen their lead atop the AL West nearly evaporate. Still, Texas has kept their +440 odds to win the American League.
2. (Tie) Houston Astros +440 (Last week: +440)
The defending World Series champion Houston Astros are right there in the AL West with the Rangers struggling. The Astros headed into the break with six victories over their last ten games, which had them maintain their +440 AL odds.
4. New York Yankees +900 (Last week: +800)
With only four wins over their last ten games, the New York Yankees have fallen out of a wild-card spot at the All-Star break. With their recent skid, the Bronx Bombers have seen their odds to win the Pennant drop from +800 to +900.
5. Toronto Blue Jays +1000 (Last week: +1100)
The Toronto Blue Jays are nine games over .500 and are looking to make a run in the second half. There’s a lot of talent on this roster and they’ve seen their odds of winning the American League bet down from +1100 to +1000 over the last week.
6. (Tie) Minnesota Twins +1200 (Last week: +1500)
Three straight losses heading into the All-Star break didn’t negatively alter the Minnesota Twins’ Pennant odds. In fact, the Twins saw their odds rise over the last week from +1500 to +1200.
6. (Tie) Baltimore Orioles +1200 (Last week: +1500)
After manufacturing five straight victories heading into the All-Star break, the Baltimore Orioles continue to sit in the top wild-card spot in the American League. Baltimore also is now trailing Tampa Bay by just two games in the AL East. The O’s have seen their AL odds bet down from +1500 to +1200.
8. Seattle Mariners +2500 (Last week: +3500)
With seven victories over their last ten games, the Seattle Mariners are having a run reminiscent of the one last year in the second half. The M’s have seen their American League odds rise sizably over the last week from +3500 to +2500.
9. Cleveland Guardians +3000 (Last week: +2500)
It’s interesting to note that even though the Cleveland Guardians entered the All-Star break with sole possession of the AL Central that they’ve seen their odds to win the American League fall from +2500 to +3000 over the last week.
10. Los Angeles Angels +4500 (Last week: +3400)
After five straight losses heading into the All-Star break and an injury surrounding Mike Trout, the Los Angeles Angels have continued to fall in the American League playoff picture. The Angels have seen their odds of winning the Pennant drop from +3400 to +4500.
